DAYTONA BEACH - Investigators increased a reward Monday to $10,000 in the hope of getting more information about the May 26 shooting of a Daytona Beach businessman at his home.

Roosevelt Payne, 64, longtime owner of the Safari Lounge, a popular bar in Daytona Beach, was shot and killed during a home invasion that also injured Payne's wife and the couple's grandson.

Daytona Beach police said at least two masked men were involved in the attack and the theft of a large amount of cash receipts from Payne's business. Information about the suspects is limited and investigators think other people may have been involved.

CrimeStoppers of Volusia County, Daytona Beach police and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement joined together to increase the reward amount.
